I've been to all hands where it probably cost that much just in travel: business class LHR to SFO, hotel for a few nights, dinners, drinks, entertainment, venue, guest speakers, and on and on.

It doesn't seem excessive, the networking in these things is often really worth it

In what business is everyone in the company going business class?

Not everyone, but often there are travel policies where any travel more than X hours long you can book business class without manager authorisation via concur and the like.

It's really worth it when you get off a 12 hour flight and have to go straight into hours of meetings without being a zombie
